What?
The Pottery Play Table is an open invitation to play with clay for free. Unleash your creativity by sculpting small figurines and experience the joy of working with clay while connecting with others.

Why?
This project was created to introduce more people to the art of pottery and to provide a space for more human interaction. In NYC, pottery often has a high barrier to entry. The Pottery Play Table aims to make pottery more accessible, allowing curious individuals to give it a try without the usual cost and commitment.

How?
Clay can be reused and reclaimed, making it perfect for multiple play sessions. The Pottery Play Table operates on a free-to-play and fee-to-fire model. Participants receive a small amount of clay, enough to sculpt a figurine, while supplies last. At the end of each session, any unfired clay will be reclaimed for future use. No experience is necessary – I’m here to guide you through the process!

Firing Fees:
A small fee is charged if you’d like to fire and keep your figurine.
πŸ”₯ Bisque Fire (1 kiln firing) – $12
Fired to cone06. Finished result will be hardened with a matte surface. Decorate with acrylics or other paints at home. Not food safe.

πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ Glaze Fire (2 kiln firings) – $20
🎨 Includes engobe/underglaze for decorating your figurine.
After bisque firing, I will apply a clear gloss glaze to your figurine.The figurine is fired twice, reaching cone6 approx 2300ΒΊF, resulting in a food-safe gloss finish. Perfect as a cute chopstick holder!

*Fired pieces will be ready for pick up approximately a month after event.
